    I remember the first game of that season and getting to the ground really early as the wife was pregnant with our twins and we were home to Leeds Utd. Felt quite neverous but was a great 3-1 victory. I too loved that season... happier days!

    Our back line looks horrendous even against a mid-table championship team. Bloody hell.

    Rui Fonte was in our box, back to goal, ball bounced up on to his hand. Free kick our way.

    1-0 up at HT. We'll lose 2-1 then.

    Raul Fonte handballed in our box. He’s José’s brother.

    No matter who we play, we go from being in control to giving the opponents the chance to pin us back in our box, simply because we can’t hoof it into their half.
    The Palace equaliser came as a result of us failing to clear with distance, despite having several chances to do so.
    Second half we MUST get straight into them and stop them picking up momentum as we allowed Tuesday.

    Don't care either way. Only thing I don't want is a replay.

    Turns out Fontes can be called for handball.

    Foul given against them for handball while attacking from a Fonte?

    Blimey, this is long winded, I'll just read the bbc next time and ignore things actually happening! <laugh>

    Reading a Fulham forum, they really don't like or rate Fonte.

    Seems they may be kindred spirits!

    Can we take Sessegnon and Jokanovic back on the coach?

    Watching the highlights during half time and they play VVD's goal for Liverpool. As much as I'm glad he finally mugged off, it still makes me bitter to see yet another Saint in a Liverpool shirt.

    My observations -

    Boufal scaring them (even if he does lose the ball, he scares people)
    They're even more scared of shooting than we are, which is a good thing.

    Yes, yes we can.
    I've just read the L'pool rule book on transfers.
